568 One great victory after another
In Zheng Zhilong's original plan, he was ready to see the strength of other sailors in the Ming Dynasty. In addition, his sworn enemy is in the Denglai Water Division, which is even more concerned.
After the fleet slowly approached the port of Dengzhou, Zheng Zhilong and the others found that there were only a few warships parked in the port, and there was no reaction from a large fleet like them approaching the port, which made them all a little surprised.
"Big brother, where is the Denglai Sailor?" Zheng Zhihu asked in wonder, "It won't be just those few bow wrecked ships, right?" ”
Zheng Zhilong frowned, and said with a little uncertainty: "It may be that I went to the Dongjiang River, and there is a war going on over there!" ”
A sneer appeared at the corner of Zheng Zhiyun's mouth, and he said with a little disdain: "Big brother, judging from the reaction of this port to us, the Denglai Sailor is not enough!" ”
If this were to change their Zheng family's port in Fujian, even if the sailor went out, the port would still be on guard. Any convoy on the surface of the sea will be warned in advance.
Hearing his words, Zheng Zhihu nodded in agreement, and at the same time said loudly: "Big brother, that's it, I'm afraid that Li Kuiqi is a bird!" Daming Water Master, only my Zheng family is the first, who dares to disagree! ”
This time, Zheng Zhilong didn't reprimand him, just turned his head to look at the two of them, and then turned his head back, thinking in his heart, if he really dared to come to the tiger's mouth to grab food, why would he show his fangs, right? Even if it can't prevent the imperial court from opening the sea ban, it is necessary to minimize the impact. The southeast coast of Daming must be your own decision!
Thinking so, the fleet has already entered the port. And only then did people from the shore come up to interrogate the situation.
In terms of dealing with people, Zheng Zhilong didn't have anything to say, he personally came forward and explained for the first time that this was a fleet that was ordered to transport grain to the Dongjiang River, and now it needed to be replenished in Dengzhou.
As soon as the man heard that this was a fleet transporting grain, his face immediately burst into laughter, and he immediately laughed loudly: "You guys are so good to come, Lord Zhongcheng has been worried about it for a long time." There was an order passed down before, Zheng Guerrilla is coming, and he will go to the governor's yamen immediately! ”
Hearing that Zhongcheng valued it so much, Zheng Zhihu and the others couldn't help but be very proud, and their heads were raised, as if they didn't look at these northerners in their eyes.
Zheng Zhilong still maintained his previous attitude, but asked curiously, "Lord Zhongcheng is back?" Can the war in Liaodong go smoothly? ”
The prestige of Liaodong Jianyu, even Zheng Zhilong, who is in Fujian, has heard of it. It's just that he is king on land, and he is fighting for hegemony at sea, but he doesn't care too much. In his opinion, the war in Liaodong will be very suspenseful, after all, if Jianyu is not powerful, Liaodong can still be occupied by them all the time? However, Lu Xiangsheng has returned, which makes him a little surprised.
"Of course I'm back, Liaodong is a great victory, and the cavalry led by the emperor is a hussar battalion!" The man said proudly, and at the same time, his head was held high, as if Lu Xiangsheng's honor was his own honor.
"Liaodong's victory?" Zheng Zhihu couldn't help but interject, "Killed a few Jianyu, is there a head?" ”
He had heard of any big victories here in Liaodong before, but there was no head, what a big joke! Therefore, there was a hint of disdain and contempt in his words.
Zheng Zhilong's face changed when he saw the man hear this, and he seemed to be a little angry. He immediately turned his head and reprimanded Zheng Zhihu: "What do you say! Master Zhongcheng has returned victoriously, and he must have killed a lot of enemies, so do you want to ask? ”
Although he was reprimanding, he actually did not mean to reprimand at all. Because he knows that his younger brother is brave and brave, and he usually fights at sea, and he is the one who charges ahead, and the most disdainful is the person who fakes military merits. If nothing else, the first level is the most tangible thing, and if you don't have this, then it's really hard to say that it's not a big victory. He himself agrees with this.
The man didn't know the meaning of Zheng Zhilong's words, thinking that Zheng Zhilong really thought so, so he immediately became happy, and immediately nodded and said, "Zhongcheng brought two heads from Liaodong this time to the emperor......
Hearing this, Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhiyun glanced at each other, and they both saw the mockery in each other's eyes.
"One of the first levels is Aixin Jueluo Babutai, and the other is Aixin Jueluo Babuhai!" The man introduced in a proud tone, "These two Jianyu are the sons of the deceased slave chief Nurhachi, and now the slave chief loves the younger brother of Emperor Taiji of Xinjueluo!" ”
Hearing this, the three brothers of the Zheng family couldn't help but be surprised. They know that the weight of these two heads is definitely heavy enough, and they don't know how much they can top ordinary heads! This made them really a little surprised, and it also made them realize that the war in Liaodong was really a big victory!
Zheng Zhilong immediately put away his contempt from his heart, and immediately asked about the detailed battle situation. The man was real, and while arranging supplies for them, he talked endlessly about the war in Liaodong.
Zheng Zhilong and others are all people who have been in battle for a long time, and they are naturally not comparable to ordinary people. The brothers immediately understood how much damage Lu Zhongcheng's raid on Liaodong had caused to Jianyu! At this moment, the bravery of Governor Denglai suddenly refreshed their cognition, and also put away their contempt at the beginning.
After Zheng Zhilong heard this, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately packed up his clothes and prepared to go to meet Governor Denglai immediately. According to the prior plan, Zheng Zhiyun broke away from the fleet and went to Beijing to sit for his eldest brother.
After leaving the port, passing the city gate, and just entering the city, Zheng Zhilong found that near the city gate, there was a large group of people looking at the notice with joy, and vaguely heard something "great victory...... Great victory", I couldn't help but be a little curious, and said to the person who guided him: "Lu Zhongcheng's great victory really inspires my people's hearts!" ”
When the man heard this, he turned his head to look at it, and then said with a smile as he walked: "No, no, no! The great victory they are talking about is the great victory of the grassland that has just been announced to the world! ”
"What steppe victory?" Zheng Zhilong couldn't help but be curious again, he felt that he seemed to have missed a lot of things during his time at sea.
When the man heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around and remembered that Zheng Zhilong came from the sea, he replied with relief: "The governor of Yansui has completely annihilated about 40,000 people in the grassland Lin Dan Khan's department, and now the naturalization city is where the capital of the naturalization state is located. ”
"Huh?" Even if Zheng Zhilong's Mansion was very deep, when he heard this, he couldn't help but cry out in surprise. But he knew that fighting on the grassland was like fighting on the sea, and unless both sides were dead, it would be difficult to completely annihilate the other. If you really want to talk about it, he is fighting at sea, and it is possible to block the opponent's lair and annihilate it. But on the grassland, how can there be a nest to block!
Listening to the great victories of the imperial court one after another, for some reason, Zheng Zhilong felt so heavy in his heart that he didn't know how he walked to the door of the governor's office.
